Frequently Asked Questions About Fullerton Microchipping

What is a microchip, and how does it work?

A microchip is a tiny electronic chip implanted under your pet’s skin, roughly the size of a grain of rice. It contains a unique ID number that a scanner can read. This number links to a database with your contact details.

Is microchipping safe for my pet?

Yes, microchipping is a safe procedure similar to a routine vaccination. The chip is implanted with a needle, and the process is quick and causes minimal discomfort. Millions of pets have been microchipped with very few complications.

Does microchipping mean GPS can track my pet?

Microchips do not include GPS technology and cannot track your pet’s location. When scanned by a veterinarian or animal shelter, they are only useful for identification purposes.

How long does the microchip last?

A microchip will last your pet’s lifetime. It does not need to be replaced or require a power source.

What should I do if my contact information changes?

Updating your contact information in the microchip registry is crucial if you move or change phone numbers. Updating your information ensures you can be contacted if your pet is found.

Can a microchip replace my pet's collar and tags?

While a microchip provides additional security, it does not replace a collar and tags. Collars and tags are still the quickest way for someone to contact you if they find your pet.

How can I check if my pet’s microchip is working?

You can visit any veterinarian or animal shelter to have your pet scanned with a microchip scanner to ensure the chip functions properly.

Is there an age requirement for microchipping my pet?

Pets can be microchipped at almost any age. However, it is commonly done during vaccination when they are puppies or kittens, but it can be done safely for any animal age.

How often should I get my pet scanned for chip function?

It’s a good practice to have your pet’s microchip scanned during annual veterinary visits to ensure it’s still functioning correctly and detectable.
